My milk goat has lice and im not sure what is licensed for goats...
I'll have to speak to my vet,  although the only one that seems to know about goats is on maternity leave

get some Neem oil shampoo and bath her a couple of times in that. Neem is very effective at getting rid of lice

Probably a bit late coming in here, but i used Spotinor, cleared things up, and I'm sure it must be safer than Crovect.
